Add to Your Circle in the top menu bar will do it. Also if you hover the mouse pointer over the userhead, it will pop up a little menu of options for subscribing, sending messages, etc.
It's not too hard to get the hang of Dreamwidth. Pick a few blogs that look interesting and watch how people interact there. The platform does have a lot of nice tools, so explore those if you're not used to them. You can turn off comments on a post, block people you don't like, etc. To limit who sees things, there are cut tags, filters, and friends locking.
